I'm occasionally asked questions of this nature by prospective tenants, usually those who have had complications with previous landlords.
Quiet Life Rentals started in October 2010, and is still going strong several years later. We started with a singular half region of land, and have expanded to over 4 regions worth of land holdings, gone from having 5-6 parcels for rent up to over 200 parcels listed.
The business has been in a constant state of growth since inception, money is channelled into expanding this business.
The software started off as a simple 'stand alone' rental box, eventually developing same-region communications, onwards to multi region and remote database support. In fall of 2012 the software was completely rewritten into the web page based version used nowadays, and developing is continuing in this software - time has been, and continues to be invested into this business.
The recent version of the software has a distinct emphasis on self service and automation, many of the laborious time consuming tasks are carried out by bots and software, this has made the business time and effort very customer focussed rather than stuck doing tedious manual labour. This keeps the business interesting to run, and low maintenance during quieter patches of customer activity - there's no chance of burnout thanks to these labour saving codings (and since I enjoy creative coding, we're more inclined to spend my time coding ways to make life easier
All the indicators are of strength and growth, investment, and should continue into the future for some time.
Should the business start to fail, I can shed unrented land, half a region at a time, which means that existing rentals need not be impacted if the business starts to shrink, until, eventually slightly more than a quarter of a region is rented out, at that point refunds will be given and the business closed. Note that the business is in a stable growth and has been since inception, the existance of an exit plan is intended to provide reassurance that the business will not bail and fold overnight, instead, when it eventually starts to shrink - which it has not - it will continue to provide support for existing renters until the bitter end of being in debt, which would be when there's about 10 renters left (approximately). Thats a long way to fall from multiple regions worth of land with hundreds of renters, and we're not even starting the decline yet.
Hopefully that provides some reassurances that Quiet Life Rentals is and has been in good state since it was created years ago, the business is still in a state of growth, and even when that eventually fails (Second Life its self will collapse eventually surely?) there is a gradual minimal disruption exit plan. We have no intention of exiting the business before then, and when we do, it will be because there is no longer demand for services enough to even keep half a sim busy, so chances are you, like most other people, wouldn't be around at that point (we're talking about having to have already lost over 95% of the current customer base to be in danger of closing… you're /probably/ in that 95% therefor, and thus already left!)
